Endrick needs to do more. After Real Madrid’s victory against Getafe (2-0) in La Liga, Carlo Ancelotti sent a clear message to his 18-year-old Brazilian nugget, left on the bench on Sunday evening. Asked about the reasons for this sidelining, the Italian coach explained: “What does he have to do to play? He must work. He didn’t come in because Mbappé was very dangerous and the others were doing a good job. »
Endrick still behind
With only 12 appearances in all competitions (2 goals, 1 assist), Endrick is struggling to find a place in a squad marked by injuries and great fatigue. Despite this context, Ancelotti prefers to rely on executives like Kylian Mbappé, author of a goal on Sunday, to keep Real one point behind Barça at the top of La Liga.
“Despite the many difficulties, we are fighting and that gives me confidence,” he added. Ancelotti, however, hinted that Endrick could have an opportunity in the next match, while insisting that he needs to redouble his efforts to convince.
